Ulster give Bath a pasting before they have even kicked off
Go On Ulster. Not something you will here very often from a proud Munster fan but I mean it, Go On Ulster. Whilst twittering away a bit of time earlier I came across this update from Ulster rugby cracking, fair play to ‘em. International rugby for a tenner, can you say fairer than that?

Bill Mclaren R.I.P.
No finer gentleman in the game. An epic commentator. I’ve just read a fantastic idea on John Beattie’s blog to rename a stand at Murrayfield in his honour, ‘The Bill Mclaren stand’. Got a lovely ring to it I’m sure you’ll agree. Here is a little video I put together to remember him.Read More »
Nearly all Six Nations Squads Announced
What have we learnt?Read More »

Williams back for Wales, Ireland stick to their guns
Wales have their star back and their pop star back on the bench for the France game. Thankfully Gatland hasn’t gone for Henson to start and so hopefully the hero worship of a win won’t be entirely placed upon his shoulders. Ireland have stuck with the team that have got them to the top of Read More »
Six Nations Halfway Stage
[table=2]
This years Six Nations at the halfway stage. Good to see Ireland in pole position heading towards the biggest weekend of the tournament. Genuinely Ireland, although shaky at points against Italy, looked their best for seasons in closing out a great French side. O’Driscoll is looking his sharpest for seasons and O’Connell seems to be Read More »
